ALVARADO VEGA, Óscar Gerardo. “Moby Dick: the obsession of death as a manifested destiny”. Káñina [online]. 2017, vol.41, n.1, pp.29-40. ISSN 2215-2636.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/rk.v41i1.28734.

This article shows the obsession, almost madness presented in Captain Ahab and his eagerness to revenge, in which his death and the death of the marines under his charge have been taken for granted.

The whale´s searching represents some events that allows us to predict the end of these confrontations with Moby Dick, which clearly constitutes a course of death without no fame, honor or tribute.

Palabras clave : death; obsession; madness; revenge; tragedy; sinister.
